Original experience of Koyannisqatsi

At the time of Koyannisqatsi's release, I was an announcer on the L.A. classical station KFAC. I interviewed Godfrey Reggio and Philip Glass for a promotional piece I was airing.

At that time, I also attended one of the dubbing sessions for the film. It was done in the middle of the night and I know Glass was there, and I'm certain Fricke was there too. However, I don't recall meeting him.

I watched one scene that was about 3 minutes long about fifty times, so that aspect of the movie became very hypnotic. And departing at about 3:30 am from the session was an ethereal experience.

I just watched Baraka last night, and it was breathtaking. This morning, I sent an e-mail to all of my contacts, urging them to see it. It is a life-changing experience.

Really looking forward to Samsara!

Best,

eviva el spirit of baraka

...16 (or was it 15...?!) years have gone since BARAKA went on big screen and was enjoying during a week long a screening per day...and had a feeling at that time about the non commercial success (2-5people in a 300 seat cinema at 8pm) of such a great perspective upon our world believing it as a must see for any human being with a little sense left

..and it's an enormeous pleasure to see its spirit relive and keeping growing stated by so many testimonials left on a must have as favourite website.

Keep it on, thank you, you're really doing a great job.

enough spoken as it's about ..beyond words....

Thank you for bringing the Spirit of Baraka into existence

Dear Spirit of Baraka,

Thank you for bringing the Spirit of Baraka into existence. It began with the film "Baraka"; it gave me an alternative way to convey to my Western students the hidden message in the sensuous. How interesting that what you present here, the mystery in the stones and human movements, are exactly that toward which I have always had affinity, but have struggled to explain in words. Thank you for facilitating the means to communicate better inter-culturally.

Thank you and bon courage!

i'm so happy i've found this page that it makes me feel so wonderful seeing people signed the Guestbook so i'm not alone anymore. because in the world of dirt and sex and politics there is not so much freedom for people like us (how love nonverbal films like Baraka) thet they are in minority.

I used Baraka as the final in my Modern World classes this year. Every student made thoughtful connections to what they have been learning in history and science classes as well as their personal thoughts. Would 15-year olds be able to think critically while focusing on 80 minutes of no words or plot. They will and the classes were unusually well behaved. Many of their responses were very insightful. Baraka is now a part of my repertoire.

I am asking students to use your site's guidelines for writing a movie review. They are clearly written, easy to understand, and at a good level for my independent study class. Thanks for all the footwork and for your beautiful site.

I started to show this film to my high school students as an introduction to a lesson. When we have days where there is extra time a lot of the students ask if we can watch Baraka. I feel that it has evoked a lot of emotion with my AP World History students. It really ties into our AP WOrld History class and I feel that they are absorbing a lot of lessons through these beautiful images. I promised them that I would show them the whole film after we have studied the entire AP World History book so that they could fully understand what was being shown. I think that it has really opened their eyes to the world and through these pictures, many students have felt like they have traveled there.

Thank you for inspiration and for making the world feel as if it were more intimate. There are a lot of connecting threads and themes that we all share as human beings, if only everyone could see that. I am awaiting Samsara!

Thank you again!
